I'm really worried about my boyfriend. He's experiencing these aching pains in his back and it gets really bad when he coughs, to the point where he can't even get out of bed. What could be causing this, and what should we do next?

View allI've been dealing with AVN in my right hip for about 3 years now and I'm only 33. I've also been on Medrol for 5 years for either sarcoidosis or HSP but it's never been properly diagnosed. I need a single side total hip replacement and would prefer ceramic on poly implants but money's tight since I lost my job due to the AVN and don't have medical insurance. Can you suggest some affordable hospitals for this surgery?

I have a horizontal tear in the posterior horn of my medial meniscus do I really need surgery for this or can it heal with just meds and physio
A horizontal tear in the posterior horn of your medial meniscus may or may not require surgery, depending on the size and location of the tear. Small tears in the "red-red" or "red-white" zones (with blood supply for healing) may heal with conservative treatment like rest, ice, compression, elevation, physical therapy, and pain medication. Larger tears or those in the "white zone" (no blood supply) are less likely to heal on their own and may require surgery.

My 10-year-old son has cubitus varus in his left elbow and we're considering surgery for correction. I've noticed many doctors recommend lateral wedge osteotomy but I'm concerned about the lateral condylar prominence issue that can come with it. Are there any specialists in Pune or Mumbai who perform dome osteotomy for this condition?
Dome osteotomy is a good alternative and reduces cosmetic deformity. Pediatric orthopedic surgeons in major hospitals like Hinduja (Mumbai) or Deenanath Mangeshkar (Pune) may offer this—seek a second opinion there.
